WNBR (Wednesday Night Bible Read) Podcast™ isn't a Bible study. It isn't an Bible exposition. It isn't an in-depth guide to understanding the Bible. It's not a teaching of the Bible.As Pastor Chuck Smith would say, “The best Bible teaching is not that which dazzles people with the profound intellect of their teacher, but that which puts its truth squarely in their hands.”https://WNBRpodcast.comSponsored by:PUFF GRAHAM - A Place For Christian Writers. https://PUFFGRAHAM.com

Speaker 1 (00:02):
You're listening to the Wednesday Night Bible Read only on WNBR.
Be sure to like subscribe and tell all of your
friends that they can join too. Wnbrpodcast dot com is
(00:27):
where you can find all of our previous Wednesday Night
Bible Reads. Grab your Bible and get ready, because we're
about to get started. And tonight we're coming from Proverbs.
(00:51):
We're going to be reading Proverbs chapter nineteen and Proverbs
chapter twenty tonight. Better the poor whose walk is blameless
than a fool whose lips are perverse. Desire without knowledge
is not good. How much more will hasty feet miss
(01:15):
the way a person's own folly leads to their ruin.
Yet their heart rages against the lord. Wealth attracts many friends,
but even the closest friend of the poor person deserts them.
A false witness will not go unpunished, and whoever pours
(01:36):
out lives will not go free. Many curry favor with
a ruler, and everyone is the friend of the one
who gives gifts. The poor are shunned by all their relatives.
How much more do their friends avoid them. Though the
poor pursue them with pleading, they are nowhere to be found.
(01:59):
The one who gets wisdom loves life. The one who
cherishes understanding will soon prosper. A false witness will not
go unpunished, and whoever pours outlies will perish. It is
not fitting for a fool to live in luxury, how
much worse for a slave to rule over princes. A
(02:23):
person's wisdom yields patience. It is to one's glory to
overlook an offense. A king's rage is like the roar
of a lion, but his favor is like the dew
of the grass. A foolish child is a father's ruin,
and a chorlsome wife is like the constant dripping of
(02:46):
a leaky roof. Houses and wealth are inherited from parents,
but a prudent wife is from the Lord. Laziness brings
on deep sleep, and the shipless go hungry. Whoever keeps
commandments keeps their life, but whoever shows contempt for their
(03:07):
ways will die. Whoever is kind to the poor lends
to the Lord, and he will reward them for what
they have done. Discipline your children for in that there
is hope. Do not be a willing party to their death.
A hot tempered person must pay the penalty rescue them,
(03:29):
and you will have to do it again. Listen to
advice and accept discipline, and at the end you will
be counted among the wise. Many are the plans in
a person's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails.
What a person desires is unfailing love. Better to be
(03:51):
poor than a liar. The fear of the Lord leads
the life. Then one rests content untouched by true. A
sluggard buries his hands in the dish, he will not
even bring it back to his mouth. Flog a mocker,
(04:11):
and the simple will learn prudence. Rebuke the discerning, and
they will gain knowledge. Whoever robs their father and drives
out their mother is a child who brings shame and disgrace.
Stop listening to instruction, my son, and you will stray
from the words of knowledge. A corrupt witness mocks at justice,
(04:36):
and the mouth of the wicked gulps down evil. Penalties
are prepared for mockers, and beatings for the backs of fools. Proverbs,
Chapter twenty. Wine is a mocker, and beer a brawler.
Whoever is led astray by them is not wise. A
(04:58):
king's wrath strikes terror like the roar of a lion.
Those who anger him forfeit their lives. It is to
one's honor to avoid strife, but every fool is quick
to quarrel. Sluggards do not plow in season, so at
harvest time they look but find nothing. The purposes of
(05:22):
a person's heart are deep waters, but one who has
in sight draws them out. Many claim to have unfailing love,
But a faithful person who can find the righteously blameless
lives Blessed are their children after them. When a king
(05:43):
sits on his throne to judge, he winnows out all
evil with his eyes. Who can say, I have kept
my heart pure, I am clean and without sin. Differing
weights and differing measures, the Lord detests them both. Even
small children are known by their actions. So it is
(06:06):
their conduct really pure and upright. Ears that here and
eyes that see the Lord has made them both. Do
not love, sleep, or you will grow poor. Stay awake,
and you will have food to spare. It's no good.
It's no good, says the buyer, then goes off and
(06:28):
boast about the purchase. Gold is there, gold there is,
and rubies in abundance. But lips that speak knowledge are
a rare jewel. Take the garment of one who puts
up security for a stranger, hold it in pledge if
it is done for an outsider. Food gained by fraud
(06:50):
tastes sweet, but one ends up with a mouthful of gravel.
Plans are established by seeking advice, So if you wage
war obtaining guidance, a gossip betrays a confidence, So avoid
anyone who talks too much. If someone curses their father
(07:13):
or mother, their lamp will be snuffed out in pitch darkness.
An inheritance claim too soon will not be blessed in
the end. Do not say I'll pay you back for
this wrong. Wait for the Lord, and he will avenge you.
(07:33):
The Lord detests differing weights, and dishonest scals do not
please him. A person's steps are directed by the Lord.
How then can anyone understand their own way. It is
a trap to dedicate something rashly and only later considers
one's vowels. A wise king winnows out the wicked. He
(07:57):
drives the threshing will over them. The human spirit is
the lamp of the Lord that sheds light on one's
inmost being. Love and faithfulness keep a king safe. Through love,
his throne is made secure. The glory of young men
is their strength, gray hair, the splendor of the old.
(08:22):
Blows and wounds scrub away evil, and beatings purge the
inmost being. Thank you, petuning in
